Halton Police have laid charges after a near-miss crash caught on an officer’s dash cam last month.
Police tweeted the video Thursday morning.
Have you ever thought ‘I wish a cop saw that’ while driving?
Thankfully one of our officers was close by when this potentially fatal near-miss occurred.

In it, a police cruiser is stopped at a red light in at Derry Rd. and Holly Ave. in Milton.
Suddenly, a vehicle approaching the red turns left forcing a driver in an oncoming vehicle to hit the brakes.
The police officer follows the vehicle to a parking lot.
Halton Police say the driver was charged with failing to stop at a red light as well as failing to surrender licence.
